Shi Zhou, a struggling actor with boundless energy, is talkative and lively. One moment he’s arguing with a dog to the east, and the next he’s shaking hands with a cat to the west.
All his friends like him, but usually only for half an hour. Give it one more minute, and their mental state starts to teeter on the brink.
This leaves Shi Zhou a little troubled, until at a dinner gathering, he meets Wen Jinan, who is gentle, composed, and outstanding in bearing. Is there even a hint of admiration in his gaze?
After dinner, Wen Jinan stops him and hands him a one-year contract.
Shi Zhou: !!!
He must be totally in love with me! Why else would he want to pay for my company for 365 days?
To make sure his sugar daddy gets his money’s worth, Shi Zhou signs his name on the spot and adds a dazzling smile.
Watching how readily Shi Zhou agrees, Wen Jinan suddenly feels a faint sense of foreboding.
On their first day living together, cracks begin to appear in Wen Jinan’s calm composure.
After a month of living together, Wen Jinan has thought countless times about ending the contract early. But whenever he sees the expectant look in Shi Zhou’s eyes, he just can’t bring himself to say no.
A year later, the contract expires.
Rubbing his aching temples, Wen Jinan looks at the pitiful Shi Zhou before him and resignedly takes out another contract.
Shi Zhou leans over to look. “An Indefinite True Love Renewal Contract?”
